"Tucked away in East Austin, Juniper offers a refined take on Northern Italian cuisine in a chic, modern setting. Its stylish second floor is reserved exclusively for private events for up to 75 people standing. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide a warm, natural glow during the day and a moody, sophisticated ambiance at night, while sleek decor and thoughtful lighting add to the elevated experience. Guests can enjoy Juniper’s menus featuring house-made pastas, inventive small plates, and seasonal specialties, such as wood-fired chicken." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Juniper doesn’t fit the mold of a traditional upscale Italian restaurant, where red or white tablecloths and extravagant chandeliers are commonplace. Instead, a meal here feels oddly homey. This is a place where you can dress up a little, sip great Italian wines, and enjoy some of the best pasta in town. The tasting menu starts with a round of small bites, followed by five more courses (including dessert). It’s filling enough that you won’t feel shortchanged, but you might find yourself wishing the meal included more than one small plate of pasta, considering it’s Juniper’s biggest strength. Courses: 5, plus a round of small bites Price: $110 per person, plus a surcharge for one of the two entree choices" - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
